The National Stadium has been marketed as the "Home of the Lions", but the Singapore football team will train on its pitch only once ahead of their Nov 9 Asean Football Federation (AFF) Suzuki Cup opener against Indonesia.

All their local sessions before that will be held at the Football Association of Singapore-run Geylang Training Centre. It is believed that the Lions would have preferred to have at least one more session on the pitch.
